Teachers,
New ELA videos have been added to the K-5 ELA Unit 3 Frameworks. These videos touch on the essential standards in the unit and the Benchmark Advance resources that align to each standard. They are located at the top of the Framework beside the title. Please reach out to the Office of Teaching and Learning if you have any questions.
